Don Sproles was one of VMC’s earliest and most enthusiastic supporters. He and his wife Karen owned the LunchBox restaurants. Don, his family, and employees often served meals at VMC, and he was known to offer employment opportunities to VMC neighbors. In 2012, he served as Board Chair. This evening of fun, fellowship, and food is in honor of Don’s amazing legacy. His service to VMC continues to be a shining North Star.
